Don’t sleep on the fact that Miles Morales is a biracial African American AND Hispanic Boy
Don’t sleep on the fact that Miles has two supportive Black Males in his life before Peter B. Parker shows up, that are there for him and wants to help him find what he wants to be in life and believes this boy can do great things
Don’t sleep on the fact that he’s also got an Amazing supportive Hispanic Mother who knows when her son needs a breather from whatever stress he’s going through and doesn’t push
Don’t sleep on the fact that Miles has two supportive parents who only want what’s best for him and is willing to give him the space when he needs it and will be there when he’s ready
(It may not seem like a big deal but most kids can’t even get THAT)
Oh yeah and his Dad’s a Police Officer and Moms a Nurse(I just LOVED that)
Don’t sleep on the fact that Miles Morales is fluent in Spanish too and is a loved member in his little community of Brooklyn that’s blooming with all races
Don’t sleep on the fact that Miles didn’t win some “lottery” to get into that private school, he ACED the entrance exams AND purposely tried to flunk tests by picking nothing but wrong answers because he KNEW the right answers so he could go back to the school with his community
Don’t sleep on the fact that this boy was able to do what he didn’t even know was possible when the time was right because he just knew
Don’t sleep on the fact that what makes Spider-Man so Amazing and important was that his mask let everyone think that it was possible that it could be someone like them under that mask
Don’t sleep on the fact that everyone can do Amazing things like Spider-Man like our boy Miles even you
